System Installation and Wiring
The installation and wiring must be performed by a competent engineer. For permanently connected equipment, a readily accessible disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed wiring. The Galaxy Dimension
control panel must be connected to the a.c. mains supply (230/240 Va.c. 50 Hz) via a fused connection outlet
in accordance with EN60950-1: 2001
The fuse in the mains outlet must not exceed 3A.
WARNING:A means of isolation from the mains supply must be provided within 2 metres of
the control panel. Where live and neutral supplies can be identified, a fused spur
with a 3 amp fuse, must be fitted on the live circuit. Where live and neutral circuits
cannot be reliably identified, 3 amp fuses must be fitted to both circuits.
Route the mains cable through the hole on the right hand side of the enclosure base. Securely anchor the
cable to the box using the tie-wrap as shown in the following Figure:

NOTES:1.Terminals 1 and 2 on the Master Socket must be hard-wired to LINE A and B
terminals on the Galaxy Dimension PCB. The connection is polarity independent.
2.It is strongly recommended that the Galaxy Dimension panel is the only device on the line.
3.If another device is to be connected to the line, connect the PHONE terminals on the PCB
to terminals 1 and 2 on a Secondary socket.
There are two methods of connecting the on-board Telecom Module to the PSTN:
Method 1
Using cable suitable for connection to 2.8 mm diameter screw terminals, strip back approximately 20 mm of
the outer sheath and then remove approximately 4 mm of the insulation from the wires to be connected to the
Galaxy Dimension PCB.
Connect terminals 1 and 2 on the Master socket across the LINE A and B terminals on the Galaxy Dimension
PCB, see Figure 2-5.
Method 2
Use a standard cable with RJ11 plug on one end and plug into the telecom socket on the Galaxy Dimension
PCB. Connect the other end of the cable to the Master socket as described in Method 1.
NOTE: Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) should not be used. If it is used, connect a suitable filter to the phone
line.

Memory
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Memory
The Galaxy Dimension control panel is fitted with a memory chip with its own battery backup on the main
PCB. This allows the panel to retain the system configuration, programming details and the event log for up to
a year when both the mains power and standby battery have been disconnected. The memory backup battery
must be kept in place to retain the memory during a mains failure. Re-apply power, this is known as a warmstart.
To completely erase the system memory and return to the default settings, place a piece of thin card between
the retaining clip and the memory backup battery then remove all power to the PCB for one minute. Re-apply
power and remove the card. This is known as a cold start.
The memory backup battery shoud be replaced every 5 years.
CAUTION:There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
CAUTION:Do not overstress the retaining clip when removing and installing the backup
battery. The clip must maintain a firm pressure on the backup battery at all times.
RS485 Data Communication Bus (AB Lines)
Communication between the Galaxy control panels and the modules attached to the system takes place on the
AB lines. The communication protocol is RS 485 format. The control panel constantly monitors the modules
attached to it. A break in the communication from any of the modules generates a module tamper alarm
RS485 Wiring Configurations
The system must be wired in a daisy-chain configuration. That is the A line from the previous module is
connected to the A terminal of the current module and then on to the A line of the next module.
The RS485 (AB) line must have a 680 Ω resistor fitted across the A and B terminals of the last module on the
line. If two lines are connected, both ends must be terminated with 680 Ω resistors and the appropriate link
(LK3 or LK5) removed.

Zone Addressing with Onboard RIO Switch (Line 0 Switch)
The RIO switch (SW3, dipswitch 8) controls the ordering of the on-board RIO’s. This dipswitch must be set
before powering up the panel. Setting the switch to ON sets the on-board RIO1 to operate on line 0 and
allows a RIO addressed as 1 to be connected to line 1, giving a total of 15 RIO’s on a GD-264 and
GD-520. The RIO switch only needs to be activated when the full compliment of RIO’s is required, or when
replacing a Galaxy 512 panel with a power supply/RIO already using address 1.
NOTE: The RIO switch is not functional on other variants. It defaults to the Switch off configuration.

Option 09 - 1k Fault Double-balanced (default)
The wiring in Figure 2-10 should be used if the detector uses combined fault and mask signalling. A mask
condition is generated if an alarm and fault are signalled at the same time. Alternatively, if the detector has
seperate fault and mask indications then the wiring in Figure 2-11 should be used.
When this wiring mode is employed, only one detector which can report fault conditions should be connected
to the zone. A maximum of two detectors or contacts of any type should be connected to a zone when this
mode is selected. It is recommended that zone cable lengths are kept below 100m in this configuration.

Figure 2-13. Zone to Multiple Detector Wiring
Wiring Keyswitches
Latching or spring loaded keyswitches can be used to set and unset the Galaxy Dimension panels; option
52 = PROGRAM ZONES has provision to accommodate both types of transition.
If the keyswitch latches, the transition from 1 kΩ to 2 kΩ initiates the setting procedure of an unset system,
the transition from 2 kΩ to 1 kΩ instantly unsets a set system. If the system is already set, then the transition
from 1 kΩ to 2 kΩ has no effect. If the system is unset, the transition from 2 kΩ to 1 kΩ has no effect. This
is programmed as a Keyswitch in the PROGRAM ZONES option.
If the keyswitch is spring-loaded (returns to its normal position), the transition from 1 kΩ to 2 kΩ initiates the
setting procedure of an unset system and instantly unsets a set system, the transition from 2 kΩ to 1 kΩ - the
return to the normal position - has no effect. This is programmed as a Keyswitch in the PROGRAMZONES option.

Terminator Zone Wiring
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Wiring Terminator Buttons
Zones programmed as Push-Set (terminator) buttons can be open going closed (2 kΩ to 1 kΩ) or closed
going open (1 kΩ to 2 kΩ). The first activation of the terminator button initialises its status to the system.
NOTE: The first activation of a terminator may not set the system as this can be the initialisation routine. If
the system continues setting, push the button again. The system will set on the second push. This
initialisation only occurs on the first setting. All subsequent setting routines set on the first push of the
terminator.

RIO
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Connecting the RIO
The RIO can only be connected to the system while engineer mode is accessed. The RS485 (AB) line of the
Galaxy RIO must be wired in parallel (daisy-chain configuration) with the RS485 (AB) line of any keypads
connected to the system. The RIO requires 12 Vd.c. (range 10.5 to 16.0 V) and 40 mA. This can be supplied from the control panel power supply or from a remote power supply if the distance causes a large
voltage drop on the cable.
NOTE: A Power RIO can be fitted in place of a RIO.
Connect the RIO terminals as follows:
+12 V (either control panel, keypad or remote power supply);
–0 V or ground (either control panel, keypad or remote power supply);
A to the A terminal of the previous module (or control panel if RIO is the first on the line);
B to the B terminal of the previous module (or control panel if RIO is the first on the line).
NOTE: If the RIO is the last module on the line, connect a 680 Ω EOL resistor across the A and B termi-
nals.
Configuring the RIO
The added RIO is configured into the system on exiting from engineer mode. If the message XX Mod Added
[<],[>] To View is displayed, the system has recognised that a new module is present. Press the A or B keys
to confirm that the RIO has been added. If this message is not displayed or the RIO is not on the list of added
modules, then the RIO is not communicating with the control panel or has been set to the same address as the
RIO already connected to the system.
The flash rate of the red LED (LED1) on the RIO indicates the status of the communication with the control
panel - refer to the following Table:

Connect the RF RIO terminals in accordance with the following Table:
Note:If the RF RIO is the last Module on the line, connect a 680 Ω resistor across the A and B terminals.
Outputs
The RF RIO has four transistorised outputs. Each output is connected to +12 V via a 3k3Ω pull-up resistor
(refer to Table 3-6 RF RIO Connections). When an output is activated, the load is switched to the negative
supply voltage (ground or 0 V) of the RF RIO. Each output is capable of supplying 400 mA.
The default functions and pull-up resistors of each RF RIO output, when connected to a Galaxy are shown in
the following Table:

Table 3-6. Output Functions
NOTE: The number of pull-up resistors may vary with different hardware revisions.
RF RIO Tamper
Switch SW2 on the RF RIO acts as a tamper if the Tamper Link (LK1) is missing. Removing the lid from the
RF RIO enclosure activates the RF RIO tamper alarm if the system is not in Engineer Mode. The tamper
switch can be bypassed by fitting a 0 Ω link to LK1.
Addressing the RF RIO
The Galaxy RF RIO must be given unique addresses before it is connected to a power supply. This unique
address is selected using the 16-way Rotary Address Switch (SW1). The address selected will act as the
base address for the RF RIO. Subsequent addresses will be
base address + 1, base address + 2, base address + 3. For example:
Base address = 2 followed by 3, 4 and 5.
3-5
Page 38
RF RIO (cont’d)
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Address Ranges
This option allows the programming of the RIO addresses, which are to be simulated by the RF RIO.
For example, if the RF RIO being programmed supports 32 zones (4 RIO addresses), and the base address,
programmed at the hexi-decimal rotary switch is 02, the available addresses would be 02, 03, 04, 05. However, you may want to only respond as RIO addresses 02, 04. The remaining addresses should be disabled
and will not respond to commands from the control panel. The base address is enabled by default. All other
addresses are disabled by default.
Module status on the RF RIO such as lid tamper,will be reported to the panel using the address set on the
rotary switch.
RF RIO Programming
Programming of the RF RIO is achieved by connecting a Galaxy Mk7 keypad directly to the RF RIO at the
Programming Keypad Socket or the Keypad Connector Block. The Keypad is not part of the Galaxy network and must be addressed as 0.
Note:To program RF devices, please refer to RF RIO Module, Installation and Programming
Instructions, (II1-0076) supplied with the RF RIO.
Configuring the RF RIO
The RF RIO is configured into the system in the same way as a standard RIO. Refer to standard RIO instructions for further details.

The Galaxy Dimension allows multiple audio channels to be linked to the intruder system in order to provide
audio verification following an alarm activation. This will allow sound from the area of the alarm activation to
be transmitted to the Alarm Receiving Centre with the alarm signal. This can be recorded audio captured at
the time of the activation as well as live audio. Depending on the set-up, it may be possible for the operator at
the receiving centre to talk back to the site. An Audio Interface Module is required to enable audio on the
Galaxy. This allows up to two audio channels to be connected. If further channels are required, the audio
system can be expanded using the MUX modules. Each alarm group on the Galaxy can have one audio
channel assigned to it.
Audio Interface Module
The Audio Interface Module is connected to the Galaxy RS485 line to allow the panel to control the audio
function and connected to the PSTN line to allow it to transmit the audio signals to the Alarm Receiving Centre.
For expansion using MUX modules, the Audio Interface Module has connections for a high speed digital
audio bus in order to connect the MUX modules. Up to three speaker-mic devices, such as the TP800, can
be connected to each audio channel.
The Audio Interface Module acts as the master to a dedicated Audio RS485 line on to which 8 off-board
Mux Modules can be connected.

Using the Audio
Programming Set up
The Audio channels must be mapped to alarm groups using menu 56.7. This allows the Galaxy panel to know
which audio channel to send to the alarm receiving centre following an alarm activation. In this menu, its also
possible to specify which type of alarm events will result in listen-in operation.
In Use
The audio system continuously records the audio from all channels in a 10 second loop. When an alarm
activation occurs, the audio form the specified channel stops recording and the audio from the time of the
alarm is saved, including a few seconds from before the activation of the detector. The panel will dial the
Alarm Receiving Centre normally and transmit the alarm message and then stay on the line to allow the operator to listen to the audio. The Galaxy system will automatically select the specific channel to be transmitted and
play the live audio initially. The operator has three control options using a DTMF telephone keypad;
1:Talk to site
2:Listen to recorded audio from the activated channel
3:Listen to live audio from the activated channel

Keypad Installation
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Wiring the Keypad/KeyProx
A 16-way rotary address switch is used to address Galaxy LCD keypads. The address switch assigns a
hexadecimal address value to the keypad.
NOTE:Any change to the keypad address must be made when the power is disconnected from the
keypad.
Addressing
Addresses are set by means of a rotary switch on the PCB. Each keypad must be assigned a unique address
for its line.
It is possible to add additional keypads at any unused comms module addresses (B, C, D and E) as detailed
in the following NOTE. These must be standard keypads. An engineer keypad can also be used at address F.
NOTE: On Line 1, keypad addresses B, C, D and E are not available if the Ethernet,
ISDN, RS232 or Telecom modules respectively are fitted.
Keypad/KeyProx Installation Procedure
1.To attach the keypad to the wall, the back plate must first be removed from the front plate. To do this,
insert a suitable tool into both openings at the bottom of the keypad and turn the tool gently.
CAUTION: When the keypad is separated make sure that the anti-static precautions are taken
with the keypad pcb to avoid damage from esd (electro static discharge).

Table 4-2. Keypad/keyProx Terminal Connections
2.Use the backplate as a template, then mark the locations for the three attachment screws in the
required position.
3.If it is a new installation, use the keyhole slot at the top of the backplate and the two elongated
holes at the bottom. If replacing an existing Mk3 keypad with a Mk7 keypad, use the keyhole
slot at the top of the backplate and the two knockout holes at the bottom. This means that you
can use the existing holes in the wall, whist keeping the backplate in the same position.
4.If you are using a wall-run cable for the keypad (A, B, +12V, 0V) position the cable behind the
back plate in the cable channels provided. The cable can be run in from either the top or the
bottom of the back plate. Use a sharp tool to remove the plastic from the top or the bottom of the
cable guides on the back plate skirting.
CAUTION:Use of any screws other than No. 6 Pan-head can damage the keypad
mouldings.
5.Make sure that the keypad wiring is fed through the large opening on the keypad backplate, then
position the keypad base on the wall and attach it securely with the three No. 6 Pan-head screws.

6.If an off the wall tamper is required, using a No. 6 Pan-head screw, secure the sacrificial wall
tamper, indicated in Figure 4-2, to the wall. Make sure that the tamper knockout is still
connected to the backplate moulding.
7.Connect the A, B and power wires to the correct terminals of the removable, four-way connector
block.
8.Make sure that the power is disconnected then set the keypad to the required address using the 16
way rotary switch on the PCB.
9.To re-assemble the keypad, connect the four-way connector block onto the pins on the keypad
PCB. Attach the keypad front plate to the back plate by inserting the two clips on the top of the
keypad front plate into the two apertures at the top of the keypad back plate, then gently push the
bottom of the keypad front plate into the back plate until it snaps securely into place. Ensure the front
and back sections of the keypad are securely fixed at all points of the keypad perimeter.
Note:The keypad door can be re-orientated to allow opening from either the left or right-hand
sides. However, fitting or removal of the door must only be done when the front plate is
detached from the back plate. Attempting to remove or install the door, when the keypad is
assembled, may cause damage to the keypad mouldings.

Display
The Galaxy Keypad/KeyProx have a 2 x 16 character backlit display used to display programming information and system status.
The KeyProx is a standard Mk7 keypad with a proximity card reader built in to the lower right corner. This
allows users to set and unset the system, using proximity cards, rather than a pin.
NOTE: The keyProx is not intended for use as a door control unit. Installation and wiring of the KeyProx is
identical to the Mk7 keypad.
Addressing
Both the KeyProx and reader share a common address, set by the rotary address switch.
An address must be chosen which will be valid for both the keypad and MAX.
Please note that in order for the reader to operate, MAX mode must be enabled in the panel programming,
(option 63.2.1 = Options.MAX.MAX Mode). The MAX addressing function in option 63.2.2 = MAXAddress, is not required for keyprox units.
Operation
The operation of the KeyProx is identical to the Mk7 keypad. The proximity reader is seen by the panel as an
on-line MAX reader. It is programmed in exactly the same way with the exception that it does not require to
be addressed (this being set already by the rotary switch).
Card Types
The KeyProx can read standard ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying) type cards up to 34 bit. A self learn feature is
incorporared into the KeyProx to aid in card programming.

Access Control
SECTION 5: ACCESS CONTROL
Door Control Modules (DCMs) can be added onto the Galaxy bus lines to add fully integrated access control. Each DCM allows two Wiegand readers to be connected to control two separate doors; each door with
an exit button or one door with an entry and exit reader..
Group Based Access Control
Access control works best when Group Mode is enabled. Each access reader can then be programmed to
control access to a particular group (or area/subsystem) within the building. Only users who have access
privileges to that group will be granted access via that reader.
User and Access Templates
Every user on the system must be allocated an access template. An access template is a list of groups and
time schedules that will dictate which groups a user is able to gain access to and also the times that the user
can gain access. This method means that if there are multiple doors leading into one group or area, then a user
will be given access to all those doors in one move. This reduces programming time and complexity.
The Access Template to be used for each user is chosen within each user’s options in menu
42.1.11.= Template. There are multiple access templates available (dependant on panel variant) and each
one is fully customisable.
Access Templates are programmed in menu 45.7 = Access Templates. In each Access Template each
group on the system must be allocated a time schedule as required. If no schedule is allocated to a particular
group (default) in the list then users will have full access through any doors leading to that group. When a
schedule is allocated, access will be granted during the OFF periods of the schedule and denied during the
ON periods. Time schedules are programmed in menu 65 = Timers .
Time Schedules
A Time schedule is a weekly list of on and off times and can be used to control the security of any object that
it is assigned to. When a timer is ON it forces a secure state (system set, access denied etc). When a timer is
in the OFF state, it causes an un-secure state (system unset or access allowed etc). Up to 28 on or off times
can be programmed into each weekly schedule. Up to 67 schedules are available dependant on panel variant.
For each time schedule, it is possible to allocate one of 32 Holiday Calendars. A Holiday Calendar is a list of
20 holiday periods, each with a start and end date, which suspend normal timer operation. During a holiday
period, one of two things can happen.
1.The timer is frozen in its current state (on or off) and will resume operation from the next event when the
holiday period finishes.
2.An alternate time schedule can be appointed to be used for the duration of the holiday period.

Inputs
The DCM includes the following sensing inputs:
Door Contact (DC)
This input is a normal alarm zone input that has the same functionality as a
normal security zone type. It uses normal 1k/2k double balanced zone
wiring.
Request To Exit Contact (EC)
This input is a normally open contact. When activated it will allow
the door to unlock for the programmed duration. Additionally, the
door can be held unlocked indefinitely by holding the EC closed. In
this case, the relay activates only for the programmed duration but
the door propped alarm is held off. This can be achieved, for
example, by using a keyswitch wired in parallel with the normal EC
button.

has the function of initiating a pre-programmed menu option
following a valid card. The normal use is to activate the
setting procedure via the reader but any menu option can
be programmed.
Tamper Inputs
The tamper circuits for both readers should be wired to the same tamper
terminals on the DCM. The two circuits are wired in parallel, each with its
own series resistor as follows:
The reader tamper is double-balanced.

MAX
The MAX3 is a proximity reader access control device for a single door, which can also be used for setting
and unsetting of your alarm control panel. The MAX3 can be configured in one of two ways:
3
Standalone
In this configuration the MAX3 can be used for either door control or alarm system set/unset control, by either
connecting the internal relay output to a door lock or external relay. When in standalone mode the MAX3 is
programmed and operated using the MAX3 proximity cards or tags.The proximity cards and tags each have
unique ID numbers and must be identified to the MAX3 before being used to operate the system. The MAX
memory can store up to 999 ID numbers, including at least three reserved for Masters. Once programmed,
the ID number of the tags and cards are stored indefinitely in the MAX3 memory until voided (removed) or
erased. Removing power from the MAX3 does not erase the programming memory.
Note : The MAX3 defaults to standalone mode. It can be configured to on-line mode directly from the
Galaxy Dimension control panels.
On-line
The MAX3 can operate in on-line mode, with the Galaxy Dimension control panel range, as a completely
integrated module on the system. In this configuration the MAX3 can be used for both door control and alarm
system set/unset control with complete user traceability stored within the Galaxy control panel.
For detailed instructions on how to programme the MAX3 onto the system in on-line mode refer to Option
69.2=MAX.

Configuring a MAX3 Reader into the System
NOTE: MAX3 readers can only be configured into the Galaxy system from engineer mode.
1.Connect the MAX3 to the Galaxy control panel as per the instructions given in Figure 5-1.
2.Access engineer mode.
3.Ensure that the Mode is enabled (option 69.1.1 = Access Control.Mode.Enabled).
4.Assign the MAX3 reader as either On-Line or Stand-Alone using option 69.2.1 = Access
Control.MAX.MAX Address:
0 = On-Line: The MAX3 is fully integrated with the Galaxy system and communicates via the AB line,
sharing system resources and facilities.
1 = Standalone (default): The MAX3 operates as an entirely independent unit. The Galaxy does not
monitor the MAX3 for alarms, tampers or power failure.
5.Press the ent key; the Galaxy panel may prompt (depending on model) for the AB line (1 – 4)) that is
to be searched; select the line and press the ent key. The Galaxy searches for the MAX3 with the
highest address. New MAX3 readers are addressed as 8 (standalone) by default.
6.Only if adding a new MAX3 reader: On locating the MAX3 address, the keypad prompts for the
OPERATING MODE of MAX3 to be assigned: select 0 = On-Line or 1 = Standalone as required
and press the ent key.
When 0 = On-Line mode is selected, the keypad displays the current address of the MAX3 and the
range of valid addresses. Enter the new MAX3 address and press the ent key; the Galaxy then repro
grams the address of the MAX3. The keypad indicates the old and new MAX3 addresses and the
status of the reprogramming.
NOTE: It is recommended that when adding a reader, it is addressed as the lowest available number on the
line.
7.When the reprogramming is complete the MAX3 bleeps, the LED’s on the MAX3 switch off and the
keypad display returns to 1 = MAX Address.
8.Exit engineer mode - engineer code + esc: the keypad displays the message 1 MOD. ADDED esc=CONTINUE. LED 2 on the MAX3 reader switches on. Press the esc key; the keypad
returns to the unset banner.
If this message is not displayed, the MAX3 reader is not communicating with the control panel
and has not been configured into the system (LED 2 does not switch on).
NOTES:
1. The MAX3 reader will not operate until engineer mode is exited and the reader is configured into the
system.
2. All MAX3 doors must be closed, otherwise engineer mode cannot be exited.
9.The on-line MAX3 reader is now configured into the system.

Operating Instructions
The MAX3 must be presented with a valid user card to allow access. Opening the door without presenting a
valid card activates a door forced alarm at the panel; the buzzer sounds and LED 2 flashes until the door is
closed.
Activating the egress switch allows the door to be opened without activating an alarm when no card has been
presented to the MAX3.
1. Ensure that LED 3 is on and all other LEDs are off.
2. Swipe the MAX with a standard user or nightlock access user card. LED 3 switches off and LED 2
switches on for the programmed Open Timeout.
3. Open the door while the LED 2 is on and access the area.
4. Close the door; LED 2 switches off and LED 3 switches on. The door must be closed within the programmed Close Timeout; if the door remains open longer than this, an alarm is activated.
Card-Held Function
The MAX3 or DCM card can be assigned a single menu option (refer to option 42.1.8 = CODES.User
Codes.MAX Function). To activate the function assigned to the MAX3 or DCM card, hold the card in front
of the reader for three seconds; all of the LEDs switch on. If a keypad has been assigned to the MAX function then it displays the details of this option. If no keypad is assigned, pressing a key on any of the keypads
assigned to a common group to the user displays the card-held function.
Card-Held System Setting
If the MAX3 or DCM card is assigned one of the setting options (option 12, 13, 14 & 16 – 19), the card-held
functions starts the setting procedure for the groups assigned to the card.
NOTE: If Group Restriction is assigned, then only the groups that are common to both the MAX3 reader
and the MAX3 user are set/unset
To unset the system using the MAX3 or DCM card, swipe the reader with a valid card. The reader beeps. All
of the groups assigned to the card are instantly unset.

Dual Access Cards
If a user’s card number is assigned a *, then the card becomes Dual access. This means that it will not open
the door on its own; it needs another PIN or card as well. (see option 42 = Codes for programming).
Dual Focus (Card Held)
If a card has a # assigned to the number, then any card-held function will only work in conjunction with the
PIN from the same user, provided that the PIN has a # assigned also. The Dual Focus function will work in
either order, but if the card is presented first, it will simply enable the PIN to gain access to the normal menu
(see option 42 = Codes for programming).
Timed Anti-Passback
When the Timed Anti-Passback feature is enabled, it will prevent more than one use of any particular card at a
particular reader within a given time period. See option
69.2.2.6 = Access Control.MAX.Max Parameters.Anti-Passback for programming details.
A forgiveness function is available to clear all or particular antipassback restrictions in force. There are set
Anti-Passback users as defined in the following Table. If a card belonging to one of these users is swiped at a
reader, all anti-passback restriction at that reader are cleared. A manager code can authorise a forgive function
on a particular user in option 42.1 = Codes.User Codes. An engineer code can authorise a forgive function
on a particular reader in option 69.2.2.6.3 = Access Control.MAX.Max Parameters.Anti-
Passback.Forgive.

Menu options
SECTION 6: SYSTEM OPERATION
Menu Options
General
The Galaxy Dimension provides various menu options for modifying the functional performance of the system.
There are two menu structures:
1.Full Menu — only accessed by authorized users including the master manager code and by the
engineer.
2.Quick Menu — a selection of options from the full menu. The quick menu is the default menu
access for all user codes (type 2.3 and above), except master manager and engineer.
The Full Menu
The full menu has a hierarchy of 5 structures contained within it. Each structure is accessible by an increased
type of user code.
The Quick Menu
The quick menu offers type 2.3 and above users a selection of up to 10 options, numbered 0 – 9. The options
available from the quick menu can be modified to the user’s requirement via option 59 = QUICK MENU.
8 = Codes18 = Home Set48 = Eng Access58 = Keypad68 = Menu Access
9 = Summer19 = All Set59 = Quick Menu69 = Access Control
Table 6-1. Quick and Full Menu Options Reference
Menu Access
Only valid codes (type 2.3 and above) can access the menu options. Access to the user options is assigned
by the engineer (refer to options 42 = CODES and 68 = MENU ACCESS). Users cannot view or access
options for which they are not authorized; this includes options in the Quick Menu.
NOTE: Menu options 51 – 67 (ENGINEER 1 and ENGINEER 2) can be assigned additional access to
user type 2.3 - 3.6, by the engineer.
6-1
Page 76
Menu Access
There are two methods of selecting menu options:
1.Direct Access:
Code + ent + option number + ent.
2.Menu Driven Access:
Code + ent + A (to select menu level) + ent;
A key (to select menu option) + ent.
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Direct Access
Entering a valid menu option number while in the menu immediately moves to that option. For example, pressing 52 (type 3.7 only) when the keypad is displaying 22 = DISPLAY LOG moves directly to option52 = PROGRAM ZONES; Pressing 10 while accessing the PROGRAM ZONES option moves directly
to 10 = Group (group mode must be first enabled in option 63.1). The option number entered must be valid
for the type of the menu structure that is currently being accessed.
Menu Driven Access
Menu driven access allows the engineer (and users) to enter the menu and, by using the A and B keys, navigate through the available options. The options are accessed by pressing the ent key. If you press and hold
the A key it will scroll forward through the options and if you press and hold the B key it will scroll backwards
through the options.
Keypad Menu Timeout
Once the user menu has been accessed (irrespective of user type), if there are no keypresses for two minutes,
then the keypad timeout occurs; the system returns to the banner text.
NOTE: This feature does not apply when the system is in the Walk Test option. If no zones are tested or no
keypresses occur for 20 minutes when Walk Test is selected, then the keypad timeout occurs. In
Menu Option 66 (Pre-check) there is also a 20 minute timeout after the last zone has been acti-
vated.
Engineer Mode
To program the Galaxy Dimension control panel, the system must be in engineering mode. This allows access
to the engineer menu options 50 = ENGINEER 1,60 = ENGINEER 2 and 70 = ENGINEER 3.
6-2
Page 77
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Engineer Menu
Accessing Engineer Mode
User Authorized Access
Entry to the engineer mode is authorized by a user with access to menu option 48.1.1 =Eng Access.System
Access.Engineer. The user selects this option and presses key 1 to enable engineer access. The engineer
code must then be entered within five minutes of the option being enabled. A single entry of the engineer code
directly accesses the mode. If the code is not entered within the five minute period, the engineer code is invalid
and has no effect. Once the engineer mode has been accessed, there is no time limit on the period that the
engineer can remain in the mode.
On accessing engineering mode, any group that is set becomes inaccessible to the engineer. The set groups
cannot be assigned to zones, outputs and any other functions permitting group allocation. When the engineer
code is entered three things happen:
•All system tampers become isolated.
•The engineer is given access to the full menu.
•The banner message is changed to indicate engineer mode.
Exiting from Engineer Mode
To exit from engineer mode and return to the normal banner enter, carry out the following operation:
1.Return to the engineer banner
2.Enter the engineer code
3.Press the esc key
The Galaxy carries out the following checks:
1.That there are no module or zone tampers. If there are any module or zone tampers the escape
procedure is aborted.
2.That it is communicating with all of the attached modules.
If any modules are reported as missing from the system, the Galaxy prompts the engineer to
remove each of the missing modules by pressing the key. If the engineer does not remove the
missing modules, the escape procedure is aborted.
3.That all of the access doors (controlled by the on-line MAX) are closed. If any of the access doors
are open, then the exit procedure is halted until all of the doors are closed.
4.That there are no power failures on the galaxy system, such as AC fail, fuse fail or battery fail.

Unsetting the System
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Unsetting the System Using a PIN
During the unsetting procedure, initiated by the opening of FINAL or ENTRY zone on a set group, the
system is unset by entering the user code followed by the A key.
•If the user does not have group choice, all of the groups assigned to the code are instantly unset.
•If the user has group choice only the group that the FINAL or ENTRY zone is assigned to is
unset; all of the other groups remain set. The system displays the set status of the remaining
groups and prompts for the required groups to be unset. To unset the required groups press the
relevant number keys — the S or P (Set or Part Set) changes to flashing U — and then press theent key.
•When the system/group is unset three short beeps are emitted to advise the user that the system/group is
unset
Engineer Unsetting
The engineer can only unset a system that was set using the engineer code. The engineer code cannot be used
to unset a system that was set by a user code.
Keyswitch Setting Options
Zones programmed as KEYSWITCH can be used to full set, part set and unset the system. Refer to option
52 = PROGRAM ZONE.
Setting the System with a Keyswitch
The KEYSWITCH starts the setting procedure of each of the groups assigned to the keyswitch zone. At the
end of the exit time, or when the setting procedure is terminated by a FINAL or PUSH-SET zone closing, the
ENTRY/EXIT HORN outputs and keypad buzzers become silent for four seconds, then emit two long tones
to confirm that the system is set.
NOTE: If the KEYSWITCH has its Part attribute enabled (refer to option 52 = PROGRAM ZONE) then
the KEYSWITCH part sets the system.
Unsetting the System with a Keyswitch
Activating the KEYSWITCH when the group that it is assigned to is set instantly unsets the group. All other
groups which have been “starred” to the KEYSWITCH are not affected and remain set.
Setting the System with Cards/Tags/Fobs
The Proximity user cards can be used to set and unset the system. This is done by assigning a user with one
of the setting options (refer to option 42.1.8 = CODES.User Codes.MAX Function). When the card is
held against a MAX module or keyprox for five seconds, the card held function programmed to the card user
is activated. For access control readers, a function button or triple swipe will be required to activate the card
function.
If the card user has a keypad assigned, the function will be shown as the assigned keypad. If the card user has
no keypad assigned then all keypads in the group assigned to the card user will show “Press any Key”. If a
6-6
Page 81
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
key is pressed the keypad containing the key to be pressed will show the card held function. If no keys are
pressed all keypads in the group(s) allocated to the card will show card the held menu function.
If the card user has group choice all groups available to the user will be displayed on the keypad. The user
must select the groups to be set/unset/part set using the appropriate number keys, as per normal PIN users.
If the card user has no group choice then the card held setting function will commence automatically.
Card Setting
Unsetting the System with Proximity Cards
The system or groups can be unset using proximity cards with the MAX, KeyProx modules and access
control readers.
If the unsetting procedure has been started by activating a Final or Entry zone then, swiping the card will unset
the system. If the card user has group choice then, only the group assigned to the Final or Entry zone will be
unset. All other groups available to the user will be displayed on the programmed/selected keypad or keyprox.
NOTE: The reader module must have common groups to the proximity card user to allow the card held
function to be activated.
Cancelling and Resetting Alarms and Alerts
Following an alarm, sounders and strobes are activated. When a fault condition occurs in the unset state, an
alert condition is activated. This consists of an intermittent beep at the keypad and/or a visual alert on the
keypad. Following each alarm activation, the alarm must be cancelled and the Galaxy reset. The activation is
cancelled by entry of any valid user code (type 2.2 and above) assigned to the group that has alarmed or by
presentation of a valid proximity card to a reader. The alarm sounders, Bell and Strobe outputs are silenced
and the keypad displays information on the zones or faults that have been activated. Use the A> and <B keys
to scroll through multiple activations.
If the user code entered is not of a sufficient level to reset the Galaxy, the keypad displays the message CALL
MANAGER RESET REQUIRED or CALL ENGINEER RESET REQUIRED (parameter 51.63 =
Banner Alerts must be enabled), depending on the type of alarm and level of reset required.
The Galaxy is reset by entering a valid user code assigned to the group that has alarmed, with the appropriate
reset level for the type of alarm that has activated — System, Tamper or PA (refer to option 51.6 =
PARAMETERS.System Reset, 51.7 = PARAMETERS.Tamper Reset and 51.22 =
PARAMETERS.PA Reset or 51.65 = PARAMETERS.Reset Levels). The keypad displays informa-
tion on the zones that have been activated during the alarm.
NOTE: If a tamper alarm has activated (zone or module) then the system cannot be reset until the tamper
condition is restored.
On the next setting of the Galaxy, if any of the zones that were opened during the previous alarm have not
closed since the alarm activation, then the system is prevented from setting. The addresses of the open zones
are displayed on the keypad; there is no sounder activation. Closing the zones permits the setting procedure to
start.
NOTE: This is not the same as open zones being indicated on the keypad; these are accompanied by rapid
tones on the Entry/Exit Horn.
Recording of Events
During any given set period, there is no limit to the number of signals sent from individual activations. However, no more than three events from any single source will be recorded in the event log.

Resetting Using Alarm Cause Code
If enabled in menu option 51.72, when a reset is required, an alarm cause code must be entered to reset the
system.
If there are multiple alarm causes and/or multiple groups require to be reset, then the alarm cause code only
has to be entered once. The user enters the most appropriate code as determined on site. The cause code
values should be determined in conjunction with the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC).
Overriding of Faults and Tampers
Whenever a user logs in, the display shows any unrestored faults and tampers. If the condition cannot be
cleared and restored, then to enable the system to be set, a facility to override the condition is included.
When a user tries to set the system, the system displays any conditions and allow the user to scroll through
multiple conditions. If the user has the authority to override the condition, the following display accompanies
the condition;
ENT to ContinueENT to Continue
ENT to Continue
ENT to ContinueENT to Continue
0001 +CU-BATT0001 +CU-BATT
0001 +CU-BATT
0001 +CU-BATT0001 +CU-BATT
If the user cannot override the condition, the ENT to Continue will not be displayed.
The user can override each authorized condition, by pressing the ent key while the condition is displayed on
the keypad. Each and every condition is individually displayed and overridden.
Pressing enter omits the condition for one set period only. Pressing escape returns to the previous banner.
When setting the system with an overridden fault or tamper condition, the display indicates the overridden
function in place of the set mode by showing the omit message as detailed in the omit menu function. The
Override condition is logged, and will last for one set period only. When all the groups that are affected by the
override condition become unset, the override status is cleared. An override restore is logged at unset.
If, during a setting attempt, there are conditions that haven’t restored and cannot be overridden, then the
system will not set. The display shows the CALL MANAGER RESET REQUIRED banner with a short
beep every 30 seconds .
Setting Features
The Galaxy control panels provide a range of features to assist the user in the setting and unsetting of the
system, minimising the possibility of error when carrying out these procedures.

Setting Features (cont’d)
Exit Time
Once the setting routine starts, outputs programmed as Entry/Exit Horn emit a continuous tone. The keypad
used to set the system indicates the time, in seconds, remaining before the system sets.
Exit Time Reset
If any zones are open when setting starts or are opened during the setting routine, the sounder begins to pulse
rapidly; zones types other than Final, Exit, Entry or Push-Set (and Secure Final or Part Final when acting
as a Final), indicate on the setting keypad the number of zones open. The A or B keys can be used to view
the open zone types and addresses. Closing the zones resets and restarts the exit time.
Omitted Zones
If zones are omitted when the system starts setting, this is indicated on the keypad. The keypad indicates how
many zones are omitted.
Expiry Warning
During the last 25% of the programmed exit time outputs programmed as Entry/Exit Horn begin to pulse
rapidly, indicating that time is running short.
System Set Indication
At the end of the exit time the Entry/Exit Horns become silent for four seconds. This allows the door to be
locked and secured and gives the detectors time to settle before the system finally sets. Two long tones are
emitted to confirm that the system has set. If all groups are set the keypad briefly displays the message SYS-TEM IS SET before returning to the normal banner.
Group Logic Setting Restriction
If Setting Logic has been assigned to a group (refer to 63.1.2 = OPTIONS.Groups.Setting Logic), the set
status of the groups must satisfy the conditions defined in the option to permit the group to set. If the SettingLogic conditions are not satisfied, then the group cannot set. If multiple groups are being set simultaneously,
but one group is restricted due to the programmed Setting Logic, the remainder of the groups set. The
restricted group does not set; there is no warning or indication given.
6-9
Page 84
Setting Features (cont’d)
If the programmed Setting Logic results in none of the selected groups being allowed to set, a warning
message is displayed on the keypad. This message does not appear if at least one group sets.

Entry Time
The system begins the unsetting routine whenever a Final or Entry zone activates. The Entry/Exit Horns
pulse slowly indicating that the entry time countdown has started. The user must go directly to the keypad,
using the agreed entry route, and unset the system before the entry time expires. When 75% of the entry time
has elapsed the Entry/Exit horns pulse rapidly, indicating that time is running short.
Timeout (Slow Entry)
If the entry time expires before a valid code is entered to unset the group, a full alarm occurs. This is recorded
in the event log as a Timeout against the group which was in the process of being unset.
Straying from the Entry Route
If, during the entry routine, the user strays from the agreed entry route and activates a zone in a protected
area, a full alarm occurs.
Abort Time
Should the user exceed the entry time or stray from the entry route a full alarm occurs. However the activation
of the intruder output can be delayed to allow time for the user to abort the remote signalling.
The Abort Time parameter can also be programmed so that an Intruder alarm is activated immediately the
entry time expires or a zone is activated, but entry of any valid code cancels the alarm and deactivates the
Intruder outputs without the need for a system reset.
Abort Setting Message
Zones that are open or opened during the exit period are indicated to the user by a rapid audible tone from the
entry/exit horns. The keypad displays the open zones and then prompts the user to abort the setting by pressing the ESC key. This message is designed to prevent users from re-entering the building, closing the open
zones, allowing the system to set and trapping the user in the building.
Fail to Set
An output type (Option 53-Program output 40, Fail Set) is available that activates if a full set has not
occurred after a programmed period of time (determined by Option 51-Parameter 35, Fail to Set) from the
start of the setting procedure.
Power Failure While System is Set
When power is restored to the system, following a complete mains (a.c.) and standby battery (d.c.) power
failure, the system attempts to return to the set status — full or part — prior to the power failure. The system
begins the setting procedure. If there are no zones open that prevent the system from setting, at the end of the
programmed exit time, the appropriate groups and parts are set.

Option 11 – Omit Zones (Quick Menu Option 0)
Code + ent + 11 + ent + A or B to select zone + # +
A or B to select zone + # + ..........
ent (to set) or esc (to select another option)
This option allows zones to be temporarily removed (omitted) from the system. Once a zone has been omitted
it does not generate an alarm condition (including tamper). The omitted zones are reinstated automatically
when the system is unset or manually when the zone omit option is disabled.
On selecting the Omit Zones option, the first zone that has the omit attribute enabled is displayed (refer to
option 52 = PROGRAM ZONE). If there are no omittable zones, then the message NO ENTRIES is
displayed.
Press the A or B keys to view other omittable zones. Press the # key to toggle the omit status of the required
zone. The display indicates the new omit status.
NOTE: A zone is omitted from the system as soon as it is selected.
This process is continued until all the required zones have been omitted:
•pressing the ent key starts the timed setting routine. The number of zones omitted from the system are
displayed during the exit time countdown;
•pressing the esc key returns to the 11 = OMIT ZONES without starting the setting routine.
On returning to the banner (normal or engineer) the keypad displays the message ZONES OMITTED.
Omitted zones remain omitted for one set period only or until they are manually reinstated to the system.
Outputs programmed as Zone Omit (mode programmed as reflex) are activated as soon as the zone is
omitted and remains active until the zone is reinstated.
6-11
Page 86
11 - Omit Zones (cont’d)
There are five zone types which vary from the standard Omit Zones operation:
•Vibration Zones — if the omitted zone is a Vibration zone, then all zones (in all groups) programmed as
this type are block omitted. The Vibration zones remain omitted until they are manually reinstated.
Unsetting the system does not reinstate Vibration zones.
•ATM1/2/3/4 Zones — a single ATM zone type can be omitted for the duration of the period entered in
the ATM Timeout parameter (option 51.39). The ATM Delay parameter (option 51.38) determines
the delay before ATM zones are omitted following the entry of one of the ten ATM Codes.
Entry of a code allows the user to omit one of the ATM zone types. Once omitted, the initiating keypad
indicates the number of minutes remaining until the selected ATM zones are reintroduced to the system. A
warning is given ten and five minutes before the zones are reinstated. The omit time may be extended indefinitely by re-entering an ATM Code. Outputs programmed as ATM1/2/3/4 are active when the respectiveATM zone type is omitted, and remain active until the zone type is reinstated.
Refer to option 52 = PROGRAM ZONES for details on the operation of Vibration and ATM zone types.
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Manually Reintroducing Omitted Zones to the System
Selecting the OMIT ZONES option; using the A or B keys, select the omitted zone to be reinstated. Press
the # key toggle the omit status of the required zone. The display indicates the new omit status.
Normal Setting with Omitted Zones
Initiate the full or part setting routine. The system starts to set; the display indicates that zones have been
omitted. The zone remains omitted until the system is unset (with the exception of Vibration and ATM zones).
6-12
Page 87
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Options 12 - 16
Option 12 – Timed Set
This option, when entered, starts the setting routine. The Entry/Exit Horns emit the expiry warning using the
programmed exit time (0-300 seconds). The system sets at the end of the exit time or earlier if a Final Zone is
opened and closed, key 0 is pressed — if programmed as an exit terminator — or if a push-set terminator is
operated. The option displays the time remaining until the system sets or the number of open zones preventing
the system from setting. Opening a zone during the exit routine resets the exit timer. Pressing the esc key prior
to the system setting aborts the setting routine.
NOTE: The factory default setting allows the timed setting routine to be initiated by entering a valid type2.3
(or above) user code and pressing the A key. By default the A key is assigned the function Timed
Set. The A key can be reprogrammed by the engineer to perform another function, or to start the
setting routine without a code being entered.
Option 13 – Part Set
This option operates exactly as the Timed Set option with the exception that only those zones that have the
part attribute enabled (refer to option 52 = PROGRAM ZONES) are set. All zones have the part attribute
enabled by default. Therefore selecting PART SET from the factory will set all zones. The part attribute of
the zones must be disabled if they are not to be included in the part set.
NOTE: The factory default setting allows the part setting routine to be initiated by entering a valid type 2.3
(or above) user code and pressing the B key. By default the B key is assigned the function Part Set.
The B key can be reprogrammed by the engineer to perform another function, or to start the part
setting routine without a code being entered.
Option 14 – Forced Set (Quick Menu Option 1)
Forced Set allows a timed set of the system when there are zones that are open at the point of selecting the option. The open zones must have the omit attribute enabled (refer to option 52 = PROGRAM
ZONES). This option is only available if the Forced parameter (option 51.26) is enabled; otherwise, the
selection is invalid and the keypad displays the message Option not available.
When the Forced Set option is entered, the keypad displays the number of zones that have been omitted
(manually by option 11 = OMIT ZONES and automatically by the Forced Set) and the setting routine
begins. If there are any open zones that do not have the omit attribute enabled, the keypad displays the
number of open zones that are not omittable and prompts the user to view them. The non-omittable zones
must be closed before the setting routine can continue.
Option 15 – Chime (Quick Menu Option 2)
The Chime option allows the user to switch the chime facility on and off. Any zones that have the chime at-
tribute enabled (refer to option 52 = PROGRAM ZONES) momentarily operate Entry/Exit Horns when
opened; 2 long tones are emitted.
Option 16 – Instant Set
Selecting this option immediatelysets all zones. No sounder or exit time is involved.
NOTE: The zones must be closed to allow the system to set. If any zones are open, then the exit time reset
feature (detailed previously) is activated.
6-13
Page 88
Options 17 - 19
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Option 17 – Silent Part
Selecting this option sets all zones that have the part attribute enabled. It starts a normal timed exit procedure
but exit sounders are not activated. In the event of an alarm occuring during a Silent Part set (e.g. fire alarm),
normal operation will be re-instated.
When group mode is enabled (Menu option 63.1), setting of a group using Silent Part set will not affect the
operation of any of the other group setting options.
NOTE:The zones must be closed to allow the system to silent set. If any zones are open, then the Exit
Time Reset feature (detailed previously) is activated.
Unsetting from Menu option 17 will still give a double beep.
Option 18 – Home Set
The Home Set option either fully sets or part sets the system. The system is:
•fully set if the exit time is manually terminated via a Final or Push-Set zone operation;
•part set if the exit time is allowed to expire.
Option 19 – All Set
All Set allows a timed set of groups assigned to the user code without offering the choice of which groups are
to be set. No group choice is offered. The groups that are set when this option is selected is determined by the
keypad group restriction (refer to option 58.7 = KEYPADS.Groups):
•If there is no keypad group restriction then all of the groups assigned to the user are set — as long as
there is at least one common group assigned to the keypad.
•If there is a group restriction on the setting keypad, then only the groups that are common to both the user
and the keypad on which the menu option is selected are set. For example, a user assigned groups 1, 2, 3,
and 4 selecting the All Set option on a keypad assigned groups 2 and 3 will only set groups 2 and 3.

Display Options
Option 21 – Display Zones (Quick Menu Option 3)
Selecting and entering the Display Zones option shows the first zone on the system. Other zones may be
viewed by pressing the A and B keys or by entering the zone number directly.
The top line displays:
•the address;
•the group assigned — if the group mode is enabled. Only the zones assigned to the user’s group are
displayed.
•the zone function alternating with the status — open, closed, high resistance, low resistance, tamper short
or tamper open circuit or masked.
The bottom line shows:
•the zone descriptor (if used);
•by pressing the # key the bottom line changes to show the circuit resistance in Ohms, if using a hardwired
RIO and the RIO (not zone) voltage, pressing the # key returns the bottom line to the zone descriptor.
Pressing the # key twice gives the maximum (+) and minimum (-) zone resistance for a particular day. The
scroll keys (A & B) scrolls between the stored values for the past 14 days.
A printout of all the zones is available from this option by pressing the key; pressing the esc key aborts the
printout.
NOTE: A serial printer must be connected to the Galaxy panel via a printer interface module, an RS232
interface module, or the on-board RS232 serial port.

22 - Display Log
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
Option 22 – Display Log (Quick Menu Option 4)
The Galaxy event log is viewed using this menu option. The number of events that each of the Galaxy panels
can store are as follows:
•GD-48- 1000 events
•GD-96/264/520 - 1500 events
The alarm log uses a FIFO (First In, First Out) method to log and store alarms. The control panel differentiates between mandatory and non-mandatory events. All events are logged, however when the log becomes
full, non-mandatory events are dropped first. The log will always contain at least 500 mandatory events
(assuming 500 or more mandatory events have been generated). A full list of EN50131-1 mandatory events
and non-mandatory events logged by the Galaxy panel is given in Appendix D of this manual.
NOTE: The number of events logged from any one source during any set/unset period is controlled by
parameter 51.48 (Alarm Limits).
If group mode is enabled (refer to option 63 = OPTIONS) and the user code has group choice (refer to
option 42 = CODES), then the available groups are displayed for selection. Press the number of the groups
to be displayed, the N below the selected group changes to a flashing Y. When all the required groups are
selected press the ent key to access the log; only the events in the selected groups are displayed.
Once the event log is accessed, the most recent event is displayed. The B key steps backwards in time
through the log, while the A key moves forward in time. Holding down either key quickly steps through the
dates until the required date is found. When a selected date is on display the events of that day and previous
days can be viewed by repeatedly pressing the B key; events on subsequent days are viewed by repeatedly
pressing the A key.
The event log is wrapped round from beginning to end. The message START or END (depending on
whether the A key or the B key is being pressed) is briefly displayed when the wraparound is passed through.
The following information is detailed in the event log:
•time - time that event occurred;
•date - day and date that event occurred;
•event - information about the type of event that occurred. Certain events are displayed with a +
(positive — indicating that the event started or was activated) or – (negative — indicating that the event
ended or was terminated) symbol;
•user - alternates between the name and number of the user who initiated the event. If the event is
one that is not associated with a user code, for example, an alarm activation or a Final zone
closing, then no user information is displayed.
Pressing the # key while viewing the log can reveal additional information about certain event types:
•User events reveal the keypad, user type and user group involved in the event;
•Alarm events reveal the zone descriptor, if programmed.
•Walk tested RF zones reveal the measured signal strength of each RF device.
•REM CALL event displays the Remote Station ID for the Remote Servicing Software which has made
the connection with the panel.

on the top row indicate the line address; the bottom four boxes indicate the physical address.
Descriptor
The descriptor is a maximum of 16 characters entered in the MAX Parameters option (69.2.2) or DCM
Parameters (69.3.1).
Engineer Mode
On accessing the Access Doors option in engineering mode, each on-line MAX/DCM module displays its
address by lighting the appropriate LEDs. To help the engineer identify each of the MAX/DCM modules, the
keypad displays a graphic representation of the MAX/DCM module address. By matching the (LED off)
and (LED on) image to the LEDs on the MAX/DCM, the engineer can identify each MAX/DCM module
on the system.

MAX Log
The Galaxy system has a 1000 event log (GD-96, GD-264, GD-520) or 500 event log (GD-48) for the
recording the MAX activations. This log is shared by all readers on the system and operates on a first-in-firstout basis for overwriting events when the log is filled.
To display the events in the MAX log select option 25 = ACCESS DOORS; use the A or B keys to select
the required MAX address then press the ent key. The first event that occurred on the selected MAX is
displayed along with details of the time, date and MAX number.
To view the log press the A key to move forward in time through the events or the B key to move backwards.
Press the esc key to return to the MAX address display. To view the log of another MAX, use the A or B
key to select the required address. To escape from the Access Doors option press the esc key.

Figure 6-3. Walk Test Menu
31.1 = View
This option allows the user to log on to any keypad to view which zones have been tested and which zones
have still to be tested.
1 = Zones Untested
If this option is selected then the first zone that has not been tested will be displayed. Pressing the A or B keys
scrolls through all the untested zones.
2 = Zones Tested
If this option is selected then the user can view those zones already tested.
31.2 = Activate
This option allows a Walk Test to be carried out silently or audibly.
1 = Silent
This option allows the user to do a Walk Test that does not produce any audible sound. It will be completely
silent. The walk Test offers two methods of testing zones:
1 = Test all Zones
This option initiates a walk test that includes all zones that have the omit attribute enabled (refer to option 52 =
PROGRAM ZONES). When selected, the walk test starts immediately. The message NO ENTRIES is
displayed if all zones are non-omittable when selecting All Zones. Non-omittable zones are not included in this
test and remain active throughout the test.
2 = Selected Zones
This option allows the user to select any zones, irrespective of function type, for walk testing. As many zones
as necessary may be added to the list before starting the test. On entering this option the details of the first
zone are displayed. Each zone required for test can be selected using the A or B keys or by entering the zone

number. Press the # key to toggle the test status of each zone in the Walk Test: the test status of the zone
changes to TEST if it is included in the test and # = TEST if it is not. When all the required zones have been
selected, press the ent key to start the walk test.
Press the key to include all zones in the Selected Zones walk test, without having to individually select the
zones. Once all zones are selected, the # key can be used to remove selected zones from the test.
NOTE: PA, PA Silent, PA Delay, PA Silent Delay and Fire are not included in the test when the key is
used to include all zones.
The response times of the zone circuits are reduced to 20 msecs (40 msecs for RF RIO’s) for the duration of
the walk test to facilitate the detection of loose connections or damaged wiring.
Once the walk test has started, opening a zone (or a zone that is open at the start of the test) activates outputs
programmed as Entry/Exit Horn. If a single zone is open, the keypad displays the address and function of
the zone. If multiple zones are open, then the keypad indicates how many zones are open; the open zones can
be viewed by pressing the A or B keys.
NOTE: The Walk Test option does not display the status of the zones. If an open zone is included in the
walk test, the Entry/Exit Horn will activate as soon as the test is started and remains active until the
zone is closed.
Galaxy Dimension Installer Manual
While the walk test is active the message WALK TEST ACTIVE / ESC to abort is displayed; press the #
key to view all zones that have been walk tested so far. To return to the walk test press the # key again.
NOTE: RF zones will also record the signal strength in reduced gain mode.
2 = Audible
This option allows the user to do a Walk Test that does produce an audible sound. The Walk Test works in
the same way as the Silent Walk Test.
Ending the Walk Test
To terminate the walk test, press the esc key. The test will terminate automatically if no zones are activated for
20 minutes.
The results of the test can be viewed by accessing the event log (refer to option 22 = DISPLAY LOG). The
start of the walk test is indicated by the display WALK TEST +; each zone that was tested is recorded (the
activation of each zone is recorded only once during the test — even if it was opened several times); the end
of the test is indicated by WALK TEST –.

Option 32 – Outputs
Outputs are tested by function: for example, when 01 = BELLS is selected, then all outputs programmed as
Bells are activated. Refer to option 53 = PROGRAM OUTPUT for a full description of each output func-
tion.
On selecting the Outputs option, output function type 01 = BELLS is offered for selection. Press the A or B
keys to move to the required output function type. Alternatively, the function type number can be entered
directly, for example entering 13 selects SECURITY. To test the selected output function press the ent key.
